Add a few new fields to the proposal guidelines, and add a section on

the infrastructure we provide for students (perforce, wiki, community
mailing lists/irc, etc..)

<h2>Infrastructure Provided to Students</h2>
<p>In 2005, the FreeBSD Project provided access to the FreeBSD
Perforce revision control infrastructure in order to facilitate
student collaboration, provide public access and archiving for the
on-going student projects, and to help mentors and the community
monitor on-going work. It is expected that students participating in
the 2006 program will be offered the same facilities, and that unless
there is a strong argument otherwise, that those facilities will be
used for 2006 projects. Students will also be asked to maintain wiki
pages on their on-going projects. In the past, e-mail, IRC, and
instant messaging have proven popular among students and mentors, and
students participating in the FreeBSD summer program are encouraged to
use these and other electronic communication mechanisms to become
active in the community.</p>
